North America’s toughest police: starting with the Los Angeles Patrol

The family dinner lasted for an hour. Everyone was very happy. Most of the dishes cooked by Locke were eaten, except for the Guangdong soup he specially cooked.

No one, even Li Bo, could accept this soup with a medicinal taste. This was before he revealed what ingredients the soup was made of. The taste was really unique.

Well, in fact, even he himself was not used to it.

Jet even asked if gasoline was added to the soup.

Locke knew that the soup must have been a failure. He didn’t know whether he made a mistake or everyone couldn’t get used to the soup with medicinal materials. He decided not to try this kind of food with regional characteristics in the future.

After the meal, Jet and Hannah were entrusted with the important task of cleaning up the mess, washing dishes and cleaning.

Locke was dragged by Marian to walk in the yard to digest the food. He was indeed full.

When they walked to the backyard, Marian glanced at the lawn, turned to Li Bo and said, “It’s strange, I found that it’s not as hard to accept as I imagined…” Li Bo also glanced at it and said seriously, “Because you already know that the thing you fear most is fake. As for the others, don’t forget that many cemeteries are around the community, and there are no bodies down there…” Marian nodded and said, “That’s right! This place is much bigger than the villa in Beverly Hills. We can’t walk like this in the yard over there…” Looking at Marian holding Li Bo’s arm in front of him and showing affection, Locke felt that he was redundant and said, “Well, I’d better go help Jet and the others!” “Wait a minute!” Marian turned her head and looked at him, her eyes were cold, “Don’t you have anything to tell me?” “Ah!” Locke stared at Marian in a daze, his mind spinning fast, what was exposed? Seeing Locke pretending to be stupid, Marian snorted coldly, “Anna has called me, you actually want to hide it from me, such a big thing, why don’t you discuss it with me and your father before agreeing…”

Locke suddenly realized that it was an undercover job, and hurriedly said guiltily: “I just don’t want you and Todd to worry, this matter is almost not dangerous for me…”

“Don’t you want us to worry? Or do you think you have grown up and you are very powerful, and you don’t need to tell us these things…”

Maryan’s face sank, and she asked: “Also, how come I don’t know that you have good driving skills and have learned to race…”

“…”

Locke found that Marian seemed to be really angry this time, and he was a little overwhelmed, and hurriedly asked Li Bo for help.

Marian clearly wanted to settle accounts with him early in the morning, but in order not to affect the family dinner, she kept silent, and he didn’t see any traces.

Before, the mother and son were still loving and filial, but they changed their faces in a blink of an eye. He now sympathized with Li Bo and wondered how he had survived these years.

It’s terrible!

He was very confused in his heart, why did his scalp go numb when facing the angry Marian? This feeling made him more frightened than being pointed at by a gun.

Although Li Bo was a little unhappy about Locke’s self-willed decision this time, he said for the sake of the golf club: “You said last time that Locke has grown up and has his own ideas. Why do you still control him so strictly? He is now sensible in doing things…”

Marian glared at Li Bo and said unhappily: “What sense do you have? You just think you are great. Humph, you are bought by a golf club…”

The father and son smiled bitterly at each other and kept silent.

Marian stared at Locke and said in a deep voice: “Locke, you want to be a policeman. Your father and I have no objection and support you. However, we don’t want you to do dangerous things. We don’t expect you to achieve anything in the LAPD. Your safety is what we care about most…”

Locke also realized that he ignored the feelings of Marian and Li Bo in this matter, and apologized: “I’m sorry…”

The main reason is information asymmetry. Marian and Li Bo don’t know how good his driving skills are. It’s really not dangerous for him to be an undercover drag racer.

Marian’s face eased a little, and warned: “Next time you encounter such a thing, I hope you can respect me and my father…”

Locke hurriedly promised: “There will be no next time!”

He looked sincere, as sincere as he could be.

Seeing Locke’s sincere attitude, Marian gave Locke a look that said I’ll let you go this time, and turned around and took Li Bo’s hand to continue walking.

After walking two steps, she turned her head and reminded: “Although Anna said that your action this time will not be too dangerous, don’t think I don’t know what drag racing is like. You must be careful when driving and not drive too fast.” Locke assured again: “Well, I must not drive fast…” He summed up a little experience. Don’t argue with what Marian said. Just follow her. Marian’s face flashed a trace of hesitation, and then said:”Anna said that with this contribution, you can be promoted to a second-level detective. Compared with others, you can save at least 5 years. A 24-year-old second-level detective is definitely rare in the police department, which will be beneficial to your future development. But as I said, compared with your future, your safety is the most important!” Locke nodded solemnly, “Well, I know what to do!” Just when Locke thought that he had passed the test, Marian said again: “There is one more thing. Lawyer Anthony told me that Mendes Repair Shop is entrusting the law firm to register a patent for a new turbocharger, but the inventor and owner of this patent is you. What’s going on?” Locke hurriedly confessed the matter, “I want to tell you after I really make achievements. I am not sure whether this turbocharger will be accepted by the market…” Marian and Li Bo looked at each other, both of them couldn’t believe that Locke designed a turbocharger. Marian thought that the reason why Mendes Repair Shop put the turbocharger patent under Locke’s name was to thank Locke for his help, but she didn’t expect that this turbocharger was really designed by Locke. Li Bo was surprised and said with relief: “So, you really know a lot about cars. No wonder you knew to do maintenance just by hearing the sound of Jet’s BMW last time…”

Marianne’s eyes were still filled with shock. She stared at Locke, “What else can you do? Tell me now…”

Uh, I know too many skills!

Locke pondered for a moment, glanced at the system panel, and could only pick up the skills that had been exposed and said, “My shooting skills are very good, my driving skills are also very good, um, I can also sketch, lip reading, and recently learned Spanish, Arabic, and French. I have a talent for languages. Uh, I mentioned to you last time that I am self-studying forensic medicine and pharmacy…”

He didn’t expect the opportunity to establish a character to come again so soon.

Marian turned to Li Bo and said proudly: “I told you last time that Locke is a genius. His IQ is no worse than Jet and Hannah! Even higher than us…” Li Bo stared at Locke in disbelief and said excitedly in Chinese: “You are finally getting it!” Locke replied in fluent Chinese: “Maybe! I don’t know what’s going on. I learn everything very quickly now…” Marian suddenly said seriously: “Locke, why don’t you stop being a policeman? With your current IQ, being a policeman is a waste. You can be a lawyer, a doctor, or anything else you are interested in. Your father and I will fully support you…” Locke was stunned. It’s over. He was pretending too much!
